Critics Consensus

A faithful interpretation that captures the spirit of whimsy, action, and off-kilter humor of Neil Gaiman, Stardust juggles multiple genres and tones to create a fantastical experience.

This is utterly formulaic. True, there are a few jokes, but as they are all extraordinarily lame, this can't be called a send-up.

Like the star that falls to Earth near the beginning of the movie, Stardust is glittery and pretty and possesses its own pleasing-enough personality, but it won't set the world on fire.

3/5

Despite its faults, Stardust should at least be accounted a partial success - and certainly more than a failure.

...an erratically-paced yet mostly satisfying endeavor...

What Stardust tries to say isnt so much about fighting your way to superiority, but letting your whimsy lead you to where you should be. Why fight to be accepted by people you dont actually want to be like?

Crossing it is prohibited as it leads to a magical realm where nothing is to be believed and no-one is to be trusted. Such a charming fantasy love story with an incredible cast and this banger of a theme song.

An amazing movie from the mind of Neil G. I think I've never seen such superior acting from Robert De Niro who's portrayed as gay!

A classic fairy tale with good humor and plenty of visual imagination. However, it leaned too heavily on bombastic action and effects at the expense of character development. The makeup and some of the special effects also look a bit dated now.

Loved this movie growing up and reminds me of my sister. It's a great fantasy movie that, upon a rewatch, has some issues that are harder to ignore but nevertheless, I still love the smile this movie pretty much always brings me. It was my princess bride growing up and I see how it was influenced by it. It's not perfect, but it gets the love for the feels it provides

If you’re looking for something whimsical and fairytale like movie then that’s definitely something you will enjoy. It’s not one of the best movies of the genre but it’s pretty decent. Michelle Pfeiffer is so good as a villain, I liked her in Maleficent (2019) and I liked her in this. Robert De Niro is another highlight of this movie, he was great in this, I loved his role and how he delivered. He brought to this film exactly what was needed to make it more fun and entertaining. When it comes to Yvaine - that’s where they missed the mark imo. I feel like they should’ve cast someone else for this role. But in general the whole movie is a vibe, I think it’s worth a watch.
